2020 Western Conference Finals: (3) Denver Nuggets vs. (1) Los Angeles Lakers

Lakers in 4 or 5 if they decide to make Game 1 a feel-out game again.

Times in the graphic are Pacific time zone

Lots of mismatches for Denver. I don't know who they have that could slow down AD or Bron. But Nuggets had mismatches with LAC too and they came out alive.

Betting side tells me Lakers in 6.
2020 tells me its Nuggets in 6.

Just give me a good series.

The Lakers biggest advantage in this series IMO is AD can matchup on Jokic without help. McGee and Howard can too, so I expect the big lineup to return, at least initially. Jokic could/should abuse McGee the most when he's in there. In crunch time though I expect AD at the 5 and him disrupting Jokic.

They've also slowed down and made life incredibly difficult for Dame, CJ, Harden, and Westbrook. Unless you think Murray is significantly better than all of those guys, I don't see why it won't happen again. I don't have the shooting stats in front of me but I imagine Murray shoots the most mid-range jumpers out of those guys so that might present a new challenge at first.

Finally, the Nuggets have no rim protection and the Lakers feast in the paint.

This is why I believe this series won't be very good or competitive like people are hoping. The Lakers have the 2 best players left in the bubble and that will ultimately be the difference.

4:30 start time on Sunday? I understand why but damn. I’ll be going back and forth between this and Ravens/Chiefs.

Don’t care who wins though, I’m just here for silliness.

You would give us west coast times instead, lol

Re: 2020 Western Conference Finals: (3) Denver Nuggets vs. (1) Los Angeles Lakers

What I want is total chaos, which would be Nuggets in 7.

However being reasonable, it should be the Lakers in 5.

If somehow the Lakers blow this, the blame will be placed on players like Kuzma, Green, Howard, KCP and Caruso not being good enough "help."

I just can't see the Goat losing this series. If I had to put money on it, Lakers in 5.

This supports my narrative that the Lakers are gonna win it all

Lakers going 8-0 their next 8 games. Or 8-2 if they do their Game 1 scouting. No in-between though.

I want Lakers/Heat in the Finals. Lakers/Celtics is always cool but LeBron vs. his former team is a better storyline IMO.

These guys have no idea what's about to hit them. LeBron ain't really even put his foot on the gas yet.

Come on 2020 show us you really got a set of balls. You know you wanna drop that Nuggets in 4 on us. We NEED to see it. I got reactions lined up for a bunch of people if we get that.

Cima making we want Bron to lose just to kill all these wild takes lmao.

I do hope Denver makes this a great series though, I don’t love the matchup but these guys just keep fighting and winning.
